Pirate Booty

Midway through the day, I discovered I could flip up the cuff of my pirate boots for an almost over-the-knee look. I was relieved to look a little less pirate-y. The gold doubloons around my waist are pirate-like enough. (Wow, I used "pirate" in every sentence.)

Kasmira - LOVE the kitties & your boots! Your blog is AWESOME! I check it faithfully most every day, thank you for sharing your creativity! :) I have a quick question for you on Over dyeing since you seem to be the QUEEN of this! I have a bright salmon colored sweater I just bought - don't care for the color but would LOVE to have it in a wine color. What are my options & how would I do it? It's a blend of 69% Acrylic, 30% Wool, 1% Other. Thoughts? Thanks a bunch! :)

OMF- I need to post a pic for you of one of my cats holding an empty beer bottle. Your kittens are infinitely more classy. And this outfit is fantastic- it's so creative, and reminds me of Diana Vreeland. Love it.

Rosie Unknown - I usually wear my contacts because I swim, run, or dance every day. Today, though, there was no exercise on the schedule. :(

Londyn - I have two kittens! But they look very similar.

JewelryGirl - I'm afraid the acrylic won't dye with any of the dyes you can find as an ordinary consumer. The wool should take color from any of the standard dyes, but I'm not sure. I'm afraid the sweater might be a lost cause....but you can always try!

Tanya - I can tell the kittens apart IRL, but it's really hard with pictures! Walt has lighter fur, is fatter, and has kind of "sad eyes." Roy is smaller, more striped, and his facial features are more proportional than Walt's.

ha you crack me up! who doesn't love kittens and martinis? obviously fabulous. also, I pretty much adored the way that you used pirate in each sentence and then called yourself out on it. too. funny. killer outfit. especially loving that belt of gold doubloons. and I am completely coveting that retro type dress. its so freakin fantastic. great boots as well.
